2019 European Parliamentary Week -European Semester Conference : extracts from the key address by Antonio TAJANI, EP President on Euro at 20 years - The road ahead

SOUNDBITE (Italian), Antonio TAJANI, EP President, We want the Fund to be included within the mechanism of the European Union to ensure more transparent and democratic economic governance.

SOUNDBITE (Italian), Antonio TAJANI, EP President, Greater cooperation between them (Parliaments) that is the aim of this parliamentary week, it is only working together the European position to give tangible responses to citizens priorities, fighting youth unemployment, illegal immigration, but it is only working together that we can support instruments for security and defence and to tackle climate change.

SOUNDBITE (French), Antonio TAJANI, EP President, There is an increasing number of people who distrust the Union. And those areas with lower level of employment there are the areas where people vote against the EU. So we need to strengthen cooperation, specifically in the field of economic policy and promote exchange of best practices.
